    I like drawing pictures on

    tattoos
    rock music
    determination
    youth
    spirit
    Ah boi.


    I very much like tattoos, my lip ring (R.I.P booo!), drawing lots and lots, DC and Etnies, having red (or sometimes purple) hair, and being really really cool. Sort of...


    I can't think of anything else I like. What do I not like? Umm, bad people..? Oh, and baked beans. Hate 'em.


    Now I'm just taking the piss.

About me:



Click here to join us on Facebook!

Alas, thou knowest how the tragic story began (if not thou art pants and should read the About Me page on ruthjoyce.co.uk…)

The gods thought long and hard about what they should do with the ninny upon whom they had bestowed their precious gift, and many wept with sorrow.
“No portraits of Wiggles the bunny?! No pretty scenes of rivers and trees?! What else is there in life I ask you?!!”

I coughed politely, standing there with my spider web frizz (which apparently was hair- who knew…), my slightly deranged teeth and my Deirdre Rasheed styleé mint green Micky Mouse glasses perched on my small face (I do have a ridiculously small head) and stated-
“What ho, what about music?”

The omnipotent beings roared with laughter as my 10 year old self contemplated.
“Yes, music, music is good. And sports, extreme sports, kids in baggy trousers…”

And suddenly a great change came upon me (twice in one day it seems) and my hair was red and my trainers were huge and my body was tattooed (I was, of course, not 10 anymore- I speak in figurative terms in relation to the passage of time) and I saw that it was bloody good.

And I picked up a pencil and followed it around while it drew, and I took all the credit. That is until we had a terrible row and he walked out half way through a drawing, and our only contact since has been in the form of a crude letter from him explaining he wants his rubber back. I wonder what I’ll do now…

  • Mar 14 2009 3:26 AM

    I always do have a look if someone has them up.I'm nosy :} and i paint too-I didn't have cause to paint til recently cuz i was excavating, but now there's no more sites openeing up, it's depressing :( figured i could do a bit of painting to get some money coming in.

    I hear you, I got quoted ridiculous prices for getting prints made up locally! I think I'l just use the huge scanners in the photo print places then print them myself.They do canvas prints quite cheaply there compared to the art place.
  • Mar 13 2009 11:34 PM

    thanks for the add, your artwork is very sexy indeed.
